Riot Needs to fix Garen/Wukong Exploit

SuicideJ··2 votes·589 views

Have you ever stunned a Wukong MonkeyKing or Garen Garen while they are spinning? No? Well, let me tell you what happens.. They keep spinning.. and dealing damage.. while stunned... let me explain what should happen... When a person is stunned they are unable to move, attack, use abilities, use summoner spells or do anything as it will also interrupt anything they are doing. Now let me give you a real life situation. Jax Jax vs. Garen Garen. Jax empowers Garen then Garen uses judgment to spin and deal damage. So Jax counters and stuns. But Garen stops moving but doesn't stop dealing damage. Garen performs a dance of death with his sword, dealing damage around him for the duration. That's the exact wording of his ability. Now it says nothing about it not being interrupted. At all. Now let's look at Jax. Jax combat prowess allows him to dodge all incoming attacks for a short duration. And then quickly counterattack, stunning all surrounding enemies. That's the exact wording. So basically one states it stuns, and the other doesn't state that it is immune or reduces CC item 3111 item 3172 . Text is everything. If it doesn't say it, it shouldn't do it. These are exploits and/or bugs that need to be rectified immediately. Others ults can be interrupted.. why not these little abilities?

"Exploit"

There's plenty of uninterruptible abilities that finish once activated. Any dash ends if someone gets stunned, Fiddle ult still goes on if CCed, not every spell is a channel like Kat's ult

Garen's E is a self buff that applies an AoE damage around him that can crit. If it hits minions, he is slowed. If he reactivates the ability, it stops.

This is akin to trying to stop Fiddlestick's ult after he finished the channel.

it currently is, although I think I agree with op that they shouldn't continue. Fiddle's isn't spinning around after he finishes channeling, they are. It makes sense that being stunned should stop you from spinning.

Also I haven't seen it but I'm pretty sure if they zhonyaed while using those abilities the abilities would stop.

I tried it before. Garen continued dealing damage during Zhonya's, exactly as expected with that spell type.

Apparently one does not simply understand League of Legends.

its not an exploit. its always been that way.

i cant speak for wukong, but in garens case a stun means that you can just walk out of it anyways.

they dont. as far as i understand, bard uses the same stasis mechanic on his ult as zonyas. and when i get hit by that, i dont stop spinning.

As far as I can see from the basic argument for Garen staying the same way, logically, if you killed Garen, he should keep spinning because nothing you can do can stop him until the ability is finished. Nunu is a channeling ult and he gets interrupted. So I don't see how some champions are immune to everything.. It's ridiculous.. But then again, CC is stupid ridiculous in this game. I see ENTIRE TEAMFIGHTS of nothing but CC and one team just dies instantly cuz they cant react, move, or anything above.

its an AOE not a channel

So apparently someone doesn't understand how these abilities work. They are not a channel they are an aoe buff that applies to him. It is the same thing as any non channeled aoe ability, not just Garen and wu. Looking at you Morgana.
